Hi all,
This is version two of the patches I posted yesterday:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2017-October/534666.html
I'd normally leave it longer before posting again, but Peter had a good suggestion to rework the layout of the lock word, so I wanted to post a version that follows that approach.
I've updated my branch if you're after the full patch stack:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/will/linux.git qrwlock
As before, all comments (particularly related to testing and performance) welcome!
Cheers,
Will
